I’m so so so excited to be partnering with Lou & Grey– a new branded collection from LOFT. There’s a LOFT just down the street from me in the city and I walk by it about four times a day. I pop in all the time to see what’s new, especially when the window displays catch my eye. The new Lou & Grey collection is absolutely amazing.
In one word: soft.
In two words: soft and comfortable.
In three words: soft and comfortable and chic.
Seriously, the dresses are perfect for walking the dog in the morning, working from home during the day, and running out to grab lunch with a friend. Weekend wear for the girls with 9-5 business suit jobs… and the best alternative to jeans/sweats for the college girl.
I bought a handful of the dresses and shirts yesterday and immediately changed into this striped drawstring dress. It’s been so hot and humid here that I never know what to wear and it was so comfortable for running around Soho!

Guess what! I’m going to be at the Lou & Grey concept store in Westport, CT (15 Main Street) this Thursday from 5-7pm and would love to shop with and meet you!
Anything that is soft, comfortable, and chic is right up my alley!! All the prints and styles look amazing (ahem stripes!). Thanks for introducing me to this new line!
All throughout high school I've dressed quite sloppily, but now that I'm about to start college, I want to revamp my wardrobe into something more mature/professional/smart[-casual], but I still want it to be comfortable enough so that it doesn't take too much effort to get dressed in the morning, otherwise I'd fall back into dressing like a hobo hahah. Anyways, thanks for introducing this, because boy do I need something soft&comfy&chic!!! -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
Not trying to be mean but Lou+Grey is not new. This may be a new collection from them but LOFT has been selling it for close to a year. In fact, I freaked out a little bit when I couldn't find their "lounge" leggings online only to realize later that they'd been re-branded.
My favorite clothes are from this line! I love the LOFT because they have petite and basically my entire closet is from there (bought on clearance because I'm in college)!
These are really nice! I like the chambray dress. I wonder how successful they'll be in competing with stores like Madewell who go after the same aesthetic. So far, I'd say they're doing pretty well–the rosy photographs are nice and I like the logo. It will be interesting to see where they go with it–I hope in time they'll be able to introduce some more structured pieces.
When a stranger offers to take a photo of you and your boys and it ends up being a framer 🫶🏻🥹 Jack is at the perfect age for fun adventures like a trip to the farm (and not just any ole farm, @oldmcdonaldhasafarm!). 🌽 🐄 🐷 👩🏻🌾 We fed the cows, played with the kittens, said hello to bunnies, watched piggies race, saw one month old calves… so much fun for an almost three year old! (And Rory is more than happy to come along for the ride!)

The night this photo was taken was one of the most beautiful evenings– we had dinner with our friends outside at Millie’s. Taking turns bouncing Rory and keeping Jack on track to eat his dinner. I couldn’t tell you a single thing that was discussed between rushed bites and standing up and sitting back down only to stand back up again. (In my memory, I was just completely preoccupied with trying to keep Rory out of the sun.) When the final drop of our margaritas were sipped and the last chip with guacamole was consumed, we all got up to go catch the sunset on the beach– bedtimes be damned! As we were walking, my brother in law carrying Rory and Jack on Mike’s shoulders (I was trailing behind with my phone snapping pictures), a man walked by us and said “it may not seem like it, but these are the best days of your life.” He got choked up telling us about his children; I got choked up thinking about how lucky we are. The air was cool and the sun was painting the sky with cotton candy colors and I said to Mike, “I’m so overwhelmed all the time but it’s the best kind of overwhelm.” I feel like I’m drowning most days– there’s always more to do and less time to do it in– and I’m touched out and overstimulated and my brain is most definitely mush. And they’re still the very best days. 🫶🏻
I’m Carly! I have been creating content online for over fifteen years- I started my blog my freshman year of college and now I’m a 34 year old mom of two little boys.
Right now I am finding the sweet spot of mothering and working. I am creating a magical, simple childhood for my boys while still finding time to do things that fill my own cup like working out, reading, practicing photography, and needlepointing.
I feel best when I put on a cute outfit in the morning and a tiny bit of makeup and have my hair blown out… but I also want to be comfortable and I am embracing my wrinkles and I’m letting my hair go grey.
My dream is to own a bookstore (one day!!), I am a huge homebody (major JOMO), and I’d love for to follow along! 🫶🏻
